According to the first test I’m innovative. I don’t accept this result s a truth or a lie, it depends of my state of mind. Relative to the rest of the percentages of this first test, seem to me appropriate.
In the second test, I was a little disappointed with the low level in the 'nature smart' because I like all about nature, I’m interested in knowing how the things happen and why they happen. However, I was very happy that the 'logical number' have been the highest in this test because it’s which has more to do with me, I love numbers and I really like solve problems through logic because it makes me think a lot and I feel satisfied when I can. I disagree with the fact that the level 'interpersonal' be as high as the 'intrapersonal' because even though I work well in group in some situations, I prefer to do it for myself and I think I do it better. I consider it fair that 'linguistic' is the lower.
Chemical engineer is one of my ambitions and came in first in the third test. The following results were never part of my plans. Moreover, almost all involve computers and I don’t work very well with them.
Finally, in the fourth test I would say that the first five are reversed. The latter describes me completely but I don’t identify with the first. Indeed all that I want is something related to science and mathematics, I don’t understand why it was fifth in the table.
In fact, these tests were right in some things, but other results were completely wrong. In my opinion this kind of tests aren't very enlightening to decide our future. They serve only to confirm what we want, if we really know it. If we have no idea what we want to follow in future, doing them is time wasted.
As well as filipa, I am also a little surprised that in the third test most of the professions are directly connected with technology, because she is not very good dealing with all types of techonology, that is a thing that we have in common, futhermore i was expecting to in the top 5 be something related to Math, live economist. Rita Pereira
Filipa is right, I do not agree when the test did’t give her a hight level in the nature smart. Because if there is someone loving and protective nature, she is that person, who claiming at the exact moment she see someone shoot even a paper to the floor. Catarina Martins
To be honest, I imagine you in a lab like Rita Pereira but like a crazy scientist, that who invents a lot, but in the end have results. (MUAHAHAH) But I'm happy that the tests have given the job that you want. Furthermore I agree with your dissatisfaction with the second test, because like you say you are a environmentalist. On the other hand I agree with Rita P when she said that technology isn't your strong.

First, i disagree when you say that do this tests was time wasted because with this results, I learnt that you like nature and I could't even imagine this!! Well i'm glad for one of these tests have shown us what everyone knows: FILIPA LOVES NUMBERS. It's your destiny, it's confirmed. Girl, you should be in my head when I need to do calculations! Have fun with your numbers while I write books and become a famous writer ahaha. Bete F
As “someone” wrote in my comment, I'm pretty smart and intellectually developed but that “someone” doesn’t stay behind! hahaha! As you know we have more or less the same interests such as Chemical Engineer and Biomedical Engineer. It would be wonderful if the two of us could study together! I agree with Ritinha, because we always expect more results in Mathematics and I personally in Sports! Daniela Pequito
Well I like when Filipa says that she really like to think because I like too! Chemmical engineer, for me, is an interesting choose because I LOVE to put everything in a "gobelé" and make a fun experience! muahahah Zizi
